Steam overlay causes GTA3 w/ FOV fix to crash

(Note: This is concerning the retail edition of the game, not the Steam version)

I use Toca Edit's Widescreen FOV fix tool when I play GTA3. It makes the screen add to the sides, rather than cut off the top and bottom for widescreen. It doesn't edit any DLL files, I think it just temporarily modifies an SCM file.

However, when I'm playing GTA3 with the FOV fix, I cannot go into the overlay without the game crashing. It works fine when it's in the menu, but during the actual game, the overlay causes the game to crash. There is no error message.
